Can you return makeup to Walmart? (What to know!)
Walmart has a huge selection of cosmetics, but it can be a hit and miss when it comes to finding what you need. If you’re unhappy with your makeup purchase from Walmart, you might be wondering if you can get a refund on your purchase.
You can return makeup to Walmart within 90 days of purchase. Unopened items will be eligible for a full cash refund. Opened or used cosmetics can only earn store credits or exchanges.
You will also need to present the receipt of the original purchase so that they can process your return. So be sure to keep receipts for any purchases you’re not sure about.
Read on to find details on returning makeup to Walmart, as well as information on Walmart’s general return policy.
Can I return makeup to Walmart without packaging?
While Walmart will happily process your return, there are a few conditions that qualify. Opened and lightly used cosmetics will be accepted for return, but you will not receive a full cash refund.
You can’t return makeup to Walmart without packaging. You can return unopened makeup for a full cash refund, or you can return opened and lightly used makeup for exchange or store credit.
It is also important to note that the package must contain all of its original contents. This includes any promotional items that may have been attached to the item. There are some items, such as perfume and nail polish, that will not be eligible for any return unless they are unopened and in their original packaging.
As long as your return is processed within 90 days with the original receipt and packaging, you should be fine.
Remember, all returns are always at the discretion of the store manager, so there is no guarantee that your local Walmart store will process your return.
How to Return at Walmart
You can return cosmetic products to Walmart in person at the store with your item and original receipt within 90 days of purchase. Ask an employee to help you and they will most likely point you to the customer service desk where you can process your return.
Remember, you need the receipt of the original purchase to be eligible for a return. You will only be eligible for item exchange or store credit if the item has been opened or lightly used. Store credit will come in the form of a Walmart gift card.
Items purchased with a debit or credit card will be refunded 10 days after the original purchase. Funds used for these purchases will be refunded to the same card used for the purchase.
There are a few ways to process your return without the original receipt, including items purchased online from Walmart.com. These will be discussed later in this article.
Walmart’s Cosmetics Return Policy
Walmart’s cosmetic return policy is generally the same as its standard return policy. However, some items may have stricter requirements for returns and refunds. Sometimes, that means you have less time to return items after your purchase. Other times, it means that opened or slightly used items are not eligible for return at all.
If you purchased cosmetics with a debit or credit card, the refund will be processed on that card. For items purchased in cash, you can only get cash refunds. Otherwise, refunds will be made via Walmart Gift Cards.
Return makeup to Walmart without a receipt
If you lose or misplace your receipt for any reason, you can still return your makeup at a Walmart store. You must present valid ID to do so. Walmart will retain this information to track your return. This is done to protect Walmart from return scams.
You will be able to change your makeup or get a refund. As with recurring refunds, this will be in the form of cash or a Walmart gift card. Refunds are always at the discretion of your local store manager, so there is no guarantee they will process your return.
If you’re still unable to return your makeup to Walmart, you can contact Walmart customer service for more information.
Returning cosmetics purchased online from Walmart
If you buy makeup from Walmart.com, you can still return it as long as you meet certain criteria and follow a simple process. This includes navigating to Walmart.com to initiate your online return.
You must print a special return label, which will be emailed to you, and send your item by mail or in person. You can also drop off at FedEX once it’s packaged and labeled for return.
If your item is too large to be returned in the mail, you can contact Walmart customer support for help processing your return.
